Obituary - Edward Gerhard Daubert
The Hooper Sentinel
May 21, 1931
Edward Daubert Called by death
Edward Gerhard Daubert, son of Mrs. Fred Daubert, and a veteran of
the World War, passed away on Monday, May 18, at the Oakland
hospital following a lingering illness. Mr. Daubert was a life-
long resident of the Uehling community and was 35 years and 11 days
of age, he having been born on May 7, 1896. He had spent all of
his life on the farm, helping his father and after the death of the
latter assisting his mother and brothers in the management of the
farm. He was a man of exemplary habits, and well like by all. He
was baptized in the Lutheran faith and later confirmed. He held a
membership in the St. Paul Lutheran church north of Hooper.
When the World War drew the United States into the great conflict,
Edward did his part and entered the service October 2, 1917. After

ended the war. After the signing of the armistice he spent six
months with the Army of Occupation in Germany, and returned home on
May 24, 1919, following his discharge. He served his country with
honor and distinction, and through he did not come back decorated
with medals not named for any citation, his discharge papers bear a
remark which equals any or all of these, for written in the bold
hand of his Major, and standing out entirely from the rest of the
entries on his discharge papers was the one word, "Excellent," as a
testimony regarding his character. And as such all friends knew
him, an excellent character in every respect as to conduct, home
life, citizenship and church.
He leaves to mourn his death, his aged mother, and the following
brothers and sisters: Frank Daubert and Mrs. John Bengston of the
Uehling vicinity, Mrs. Henry E. Kriebel of Tekamah, Mrs. Edwin
Edelman of Fremont, and Mrs. Lindquist and Miss Frieda, Fred and

conducting them. Interment was made in the Swaburg cemetery, the
services at the grave being in charge of the Noble Lund post of the

Obituary
Another Pioneer Gone A Settler of the Seventies John Daubert of
Logan Township in Dodge County Passing of a Burt County Pioneer.
This week the Independent is called to chronicle the death of one
of the early pioneers of northern Dodge County, who was also well
known to and was connected in a social and business way with many
Burt County people, a man of sturdy German stock of the class that
constitutes our sterling farming communities. John Daubert, aged
eighty-three years, one month and one day, died on May 10, 1913, at
the home of his daughter-in-law, Mrs. Fred Daubert, in Logan
Township, Dodge County, Nebraska. He had been ill and in bed about
three months, during which time he was tenderly card for by the
daughter-in-law and grandchildren.
Johan Daubert was born in the duchy of Saxe-Meiningen in
southwestern Germany, on April 9, 1830. He was united in marriage
to Miss Eva Elizabeth Uehling, also of the same province. Three
children were born to this union, one daughter and two sons. The
Dauberts left the Fatherland for America in 1864, coming first to
Dodge County Wis., where many of their conuntrymen had settled.
However, they remained there only long enuf to gain the first idea
of the ways and conditions in the new world and to acquire some
means for investment where prospects were better. So in 1873 they
set out for Nebraska, coming to Logan Township, where they at once
purchased a farm. The children attended school in old District No.
17 and the boys, Fred and Henry, who in a few years became of age
soon acquired farms of their own in the same neighborhood, and the
daughter became the wife of George Richardson, of Ohio, who is now
a prominent farmer in the neighborhood.
Mr. Daubert became a widower through the death of his wife twenty-
one years ago, but two of his three children survive him viz; Mrs.
George Richardson, of Argo, and Henry Daubert of Lyons. There
remains also to mourn him among

Edward M. Phillippe
Edward M. Phillippe, a resident of Hooper and vicinity for a number
of years, passed away at his home in this city at 4:30 Saturday
morning, May 11, 1935. His death is attributed to complications
arising from an attack of pneumonia he suffered last January.
Although not very strong since a boy, he never suffered any serious
illness until he was stricken with pneumonia from which he never
fully recovered.
Mr. Phillippe was 44 years, 11 months and 17 days of age at the
time of his death, he having been born on May 24, 1890, at Rural
Retreat, Va., where he spent his boyhood and young manhood. He was
united in marriage to Miss Della Richardson November 18, 1919, who
survives him. He engaged in farming in the Hooper community for
about 12 years and in this he was successful, but bank failures
took away the savings he had earned through hard work. He had
lived in Hooper the past three years and had commanded the respect
of his fellow citizens. He was a dutiful husband and father and a
friend to all. He was a member of the Methodist church, and of the
Brotherhood and Sisterhood of Labor.
Besides his wife he is survived by five children, Harlan, Darlene,
Warren, Duane and Paul; three sisters, Mrs. Josie Phillippe, Mrs.
Nettie Horn and Miss Cleo, all of Virginia, and six brothers,
Charles, of Basin, Wyo., Frank of Saskatchewan, Can., Ray of
Fremont, and George, Walter and Willis of Virginia.
With Wollmer & Warne in charge of arrangements the funeral was held

from the Methodist church, the pastor Rev. G. A. Morey, preaching
the words of comfort to the sorrowing family and relatives and the
large number of friends assembled to pay a last tribute to his
memory.
